Turns out Ghost Light is good for drawing
100 days, Lads!!!
We've trended every day since cancellation, and that's, to be honest, friggin incredible. A huge round of applause to everyone who's posted, tweeted, tiktok'd, and interacted in any other way that we (the mods) are too fandom-grandma to know the lingo for.
LockNation, you continually astound and impress us. Your talent, dedication, meme prowess, and kindness are nigh-overwhelming at times, and we've seen just how powerful these forces are.
100 days have flown by with twitter campaigns, fan projects, fun interactions with cast and crew, and above all, love for this show and a determined faith and hope in its future. We can do this because we believe in it. We can do this because we're working hard for it.
We can do this, full stop. Here's to our future success -- and possibly 100 more!
Bro was 60 seconds from going down on one knee, change my mind
I was listening to an Anthony Lockwood playlist, and this one came on and like
You're right
This belongs in that playlist
Chase Atlantic is very Anthony Lockwood, change my mind
Is there anyone currently writing for lockwood & Co, and willing to write some requests? I've litterly watched one episode and I'm already head over heels here
Vertigo
A Cot3 travelling circus au, with a touch of magic ✨ (Written for the Lockwood & Co. Big Bang 2023/2024!)
The living and the dead have always spoken equally to Lucy, and she doesn’t know where to focus any more. When disaster strikes at Jacob’s Travelling Circus, Lucy flees to London. There, she stumbles upon the world famous Fairfax Carnival, and falls back on an old con that her mother made her do as a child; swindling punters as a fake psychic. Lucy is content to blend into the background and be just another carnie, but when Annabel Ward, the trapeze star, disappears overnight, Lucy is forced into the spotlight in to a role she told herself she’d never do again. Add to that Lockwood's unhappiness about her getting a star act over him, and stopping the inspector investigating Annabel’s disappearance ratting her whereabouts to Jacobs; Lucy’s too distracted to even notice that the voices in her head are leading her right to the heart of the problem. She can’t ignore the signs forever, and when the mysterious figure lurking inside her crystal ball starts giving warnings about George and the Carnival’s secretary, Joplin, she and Lockwood must work together to figure out the dark secret behind the carnival’s popular attraction; the Hall Of Mirrors.
Welp, it's here, my fic posting day!! Chapter one is up, and the remainder of the fic will follow very soon (when work and health issues stop kicking my ass this week)
I want to give an absolutely massive shoutout to my teammates, @radishwizard and @ayeaye-capn. You two have both figuratively and literally been my rocks thoughout all of this. Without you two, this fic would not be possible. Thank you 💕🎪✨ The lovely tent illustration is what you'll see at the top of every chapter on ao3 with the chapter number, and was made by Radish, who also made a spectacular poster for the Fairfax Carnival!
And as always, all the love towards the organisers of @lockwoodandcobigbang2023, whout whom this event wouldn't have been possible. As I've mentioned in my art posts, you guys dragged me kicking and screaming out of an art *and* writing block, and I'll forever be grateful for that 💕
To anyone reading this; feel free to come yell in my dm's with me about this fic if you so wish. I've put so much love into creating this au and world, and I'm so excited to share it with y'all. I hope you all like this weird, niche, and oddly specific au as much as I do!!
Been really excited for today!!
This is my first big bang and first proper digital art work. Thank you so much @sammi-phoenix for your awesome work. I had so much fun working with you.
Everyone go read it here.
A big shout out to @lockwoodandcobigbang2023 for hosting this event! Thank you so much!

The theme for this issue of the Tea, Toast & Ghosts zine is "What's your favorite part of Lockwood & Co.?" with a twist:
We challenge you to frame your piece as something you might see in one of the gossip rags Lockwood loves to read in his free time.
For example, if your favorite part of the show is the costumes, create art of your favorite character in street fashion! If you love Skull's snarky commentary, write an editorial from his perspective! We encourage you to push your creativity to its limits.
Contributor Applications open July 31st. Stay spooky 👻⚔
Something is brewing in London, and it's not just tea!
This is the official Tumblr for the Tea, Toast & Ghosts zine, a celebration of the Lockwood & Co book and television series.

Lockwood and Co Big Bang 2023!
We're excited to announce the first post-show Lockwood and Co Big Bang event!
A Big Bang teams up authors and artists to create new content for the fandom, and cheerleaders to help them along the way! Artists will create accompanying art for each fic, authors will write a fic of 5k words minimum (there are stages to this, more info to follow!) and cheerleaders will beta read and provide encouragement. We will also be accepting signups for reserve agents, who will be able to step in at the last minute should something happen and a team be left incomplete.
Signups will start on the 20th June and end on the 7th July, and we're looking forward to seeing what you all come up with!
The link for signups can be found here (but the form won't be open before the 20th), and if you want more information about the event our rules and schedule will be posted asap, and asks are open if you have any immediate questions!!
The posting date for all the works is pencilled in to start on the one year anniversary of the show, 27th January, 2024.
We're so excited to finally be able to share this announcement with you. Feel free to reblog it to spread the word!
Signed, L&Co Big Bang 2023 mods :))
June 1st-Trend it on YouTube
On June 1st We are going to trend Lockwood & Co on YouTube.
At the beginning of you day open the playlist, hit play and then hit Loop Playlist. You can mute the sound on top of the tabs depending on your browser. Check on it periodically to click the still watching button and that it's still on the playlist.
Make positive comments on the videos with #savelockwoodandco. Like and reply to other comments.
Finally- Ask YouTubers to react to watching Lockwood & Co.
Ask them the question- Would you Renew or Cancel?
The play list is just two videos-the trailer and the interview where they talk about future seasons. Together they are a little over 5 min; so on loop they will play about 5-6 times an hour.
Here is a list @beachblue37 has of some YouTube channels to message or message your own favorites.
@damimina for the idea. @savelockwoodandco

Good luck!
an update: saving lockwood and co.
hey! just a quick update on what's going on for tumblr's lock nation. the petition links are here and here, please sign! at the time of writing one of them has 4000+ signs.
we have the google site and the padlet right here, as well as an open letter in the works!
articles have also been written by a few major agencies which is mad, a few linked down here! leisurebyte, forbes, wegotthiscovered, express, sportskeeda
furthermore, georgina stroud and jonathan have been interacting with posts on twitter that talk about passing onwards to another studio, which is a massively positive sign that they want to do something. it's super unclear how much control the strouds have over this, but they're on our side.
authors like rick riordan and eoin colfer have interacted with instagram posts about the cancellation, sharing their thoughts on how it shouldn't have been cancelled.
the hashtag savelockwoodandco has reached 10k tweets at the time of writing!
keep doing what you're doing. please. keep posting, hashtagging, sharing and spreading awareness. this isn't looking as bad as it did at the start.
I made some vaguely Christmassy Lockwood and Co art for the secret Santa exchange on the Lockwood & Co discord, and the lovely person I was paired with gave me permission to post it here :)
Merry Christmas, and I hope you all have a lovely day, regardless of if you celebrate!
(Also the art I received from my secret Santa was so fricken cute 😭)
"I disobeyed the first, most crucial rule.
I hung back at the doorway, hesitant and afraid."
(Sorry if this isn't coherent, I started watching it like, the second it was released, went to bed around 1 in the morning and only just woke up now) (its 10 in the morning)
I WAS RIGHT. IT WAS BLOODY STUNNING.
The one bit that I was a bit upset with about it being different from the books is when Lucy has Skully look in the mirror, because the whole 'Oh no, something happened to him and now he won't talk' thing happens in the last book, so I'm just wondering how they're going to make that work in the next season or two.
I'm also really happy that Lockwood and Lucy didn't kiss, because they don't in the books, and it's a big part of their character development.
IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL SHOW AND I CAN'T WAIT TO REWATCH IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
LOCKWOOD & CO COMES OUT TOMORROW AT 7 PM(for me). I AM SO INCREDIBLY NORMAL ABOUT THIS.
LOL NAH. TOMORROW IS GONNA BE SPENT FINDING EVERY SINGLE BLANKET AND/OR PILLOW THAT I OWN AND PILING THEM UP ON THE COUCH.
Fr tho, some one should make a Lockwood & Co groupchat. That would be so cool.
A question for the people:
Should I dig up my old Lockwood & Co fanfic and start writing it again?
Ohhh dear
HOW IS THAT LOCKWOOD AND CO IS NOW A DECADE OLD?
God, how time goes.
Let's just say that I'm kinda ashame of finding out this word just a few months ago, but I'm glad I did.
To celebrate, I made a PowerPoint that one day, I hope, will be presented to Netflix and will persuade 'em to continue this series.
The bad thing is that I do not know how to post it here.
Can someone teach me? I wanto all of you to give me advice and recomendations of it.
People:
I sended a message to Ruby Stokes' Instagram, proposing her a plan to convince Netflix to get Lockwood and Co back.
Start praying for her to answers me. This cannot go to waste.
Good Night.
People.
Look at this.
The meanings of names and surnames.
For example:
George: Farmer; earthworker.
Casper: Treasurer.
Karim: Dignified.
So, technically, George Casper Karim means "the farmer of the dignified treasure".
Not so bad, it makes some sense.
Now, Lockwood.
Anthony: priceless one.
John: God is gracious.
Lockwood: forest near the fortified place.
So Anthony John Lockwood is called "The priceless one of the grace of God from the forest near the fortified place".
Now, Lucy.
Lucy: light.
Joan: God is gracious.
Carlyle: Fortress, stronghold, castle.
So, Lucy Joan Carlyle means "The light of the grace of God from the fortress".
What the....
Carlyle... Fortress... Lockwood... Forest near to the-
*gasp in argentinian*
OH
MY
PRICELESS
GOD.
People, someone with better skills in editing than mine please PLEASE PLEASE edit Steal the Show from Elemental to Locklyle.
"So if It's real, then darling let me know. I wouldn't mind if you steal the show".
"You shine, you shine, like forever last forever. You shine, you shine, and steal the show".
ISNT THAT LOCKLYLE FROM LOCKWOOD POV!?!?!?!??
PEOPLE
OHMYGOSH
I FOUND IT
ITS KIND OF HEART-SHAPPED BUT I DON'T FREAKING CARE I FOUND IT
IT WAS WORTH THE 1700 PESOS
IT'S BEAUTIFUL. AND I PUT IT ON. ITS EXACTLY ABOVE MY THROAT JUST LIKE IN THE SERIE.
I FEEL SO HAPPYYYYYYYYYYYYyyyyyyyiii
*passes out*
I love my brain when this kinda things come to real.
So, you're seriously telling me that The Empty Grave ends with Lucy putting the UNDYING DEVOTION NECKLACE ON and running down the fucking stairs and then... Nothing? An ending more open-ended than bridge entrance?
Jonathan, that's cruel. Like, more cruel than Marissa.
Im not surprised tho. I just spoiled myself. Again.
